Yeah, there's at least one other person - i think Octavius85 - with a place there. He should post here soon since he's one of the more active ones.

I'll only be applying next year in January. So I'm waiting for the lot of you to report back with your experiences this year. :biggrin:

Looks like it's gonna be Bankside and Rosebury though.

And probably International/Commonwealth for my UoL options.

Maybe that. :p:

Bankside just seems so perfect, aside from the distance from school. :smile:

High chances of a single room, self-catered with the option of pay-as-you-eat meals, large (meaning easy to socialise and find people at your frequency), etc.

Well in all honesty I know no one at HH. The one friend I have who recently visited London actually made a trip down to HH.. and he came back with nothing but criticism. :p:

posh and old and above all CLOSE to the school sounds good enough to me. I spoke with the accomodation office today and you can only sign for a provisional acceptance. They ll send us an email when the Acceptance form is available.

Is this Acceptance Form only for Northumberland House? Because I've already filled in one for Bankside House. :smile:

i've been there countless times, the bar is good, location is good, rooms are small but ok, showers n stuff is ok, the kitchen i saw was a dump (one of the 3 or so floors which hadnt had a new kitchen - its gettin done this year i think)

all in all its ok, i know loads of people there and a few at bankside.


I received a provision offer for Northumberland House too. It was my first choice. I like that the room will be brand new, en suite and 10 mins from LSE. If all goes well, I will be moving in 1 Sep 2006. :smile: I read that it used to be Victoria Hotel before the World Wars before Ministry of Defence took over the building and used it for accomodation for staff during the World Wars. Before LSE bought over, NH was MOD office.

Yep, you guessed right. MSc in Fin & Econs. How about yourself? :smile:
